Board gives first reading to liquor code updates including dance licenses (20‑26‑19); work session planned

County staff provided a high‑level overview of proposed code ordinance 20‑26‑19, which would repeal and reenact sections of chapter 12 (licenses and permits) and chapter 5 (revenue and finance) to address liquor code updates including biennial licenses, dance licenses, and other fee adjustments. Staff said this first reading was placed into the record to proceed while additional administrative details would be addressed in a scheduled work session before second reading.
